Starpath bets on mass-produced, space-rated solar
Starpath is changing the space-rated solar panel industry in its quest to build off-world colonies.
This model goes through a streamlined testing process, but is not flight-rated, making it suited for prototyping, lab use, and building a satellite ahead of launch, a Starpath representative said. By next year, the startup claims its line could produce more than the rest of the world’s supply of space-rated solar power combined, with enough capacity to service every satellite made on Earth. Panels “won’t be made to order … they’ll be stocked.” Shipping times will be as short as three weeks to the customer’s door initially, and just three days from December onward.
